Anyone who's tried to pick up a frightened cat would not find it weird for a creature to make a full-attack action with all attacks available. ;-P

While it's true that we don't put ALL of our open rules up on the PRD, that's not at all because we're trying to misdirect things or be obtuse or nefarious. It's merely that, for better or worse, we just don't have the time and resources to put all of the rules from our Adventure Paths, Player's...

I've looked through it but haven't done much with it. It's interesting looking though, that's for sure! Apart from details on several new player races and several new deities, there's not a lot of rules content in the Dragon Empires Gazetteer—it's primarily about presenting the setting itself...

Psionics are a tricky subject. The people who want psionics in Pathifnder the most, as far as I can tell, are overwhelmingly fans of the 3.5 Power Point system (or some variant). I'm probably the BIGGEST fan of psioncis at Paizo, but I'm absolutely NOT a fan of the power point system. I much...

Partially correct; we WANT to hear back from folks about the playtests. That's why we make them public. The main place we look for that feedback is on our forums at Paizo, but we also look elsewhere. Stephen and my presence on this board should be proof that we at least look at EN world (but we...

Hey there, everyone! First off... thanks for checking out the playtest! There's already some great feedback here in this thread, but I'd love it if you could also post in the playtest forums over at paizo.com as well. We DO read ENworld here at Paizo quite a lot, but playtest feedback has a...

Officially, no, there are not psionics yet in Pathfinder. At some point, though, we'll need to make that decision for Golarion (since, traditionally, there ARE psionics in our campaign setting), at which point we'll have to decide if we want to take our own stab at developing official psionic...

I'm relatively sure that quote from Erik was him talking about how and when a magazine publisher actually gets the money they're owed from magazines. AKA: If you launch a new magazine on day 1, and assuming you have a 6 month period where the contents are written, edited, laid out, and printed...

We've already illustrated an adventure bath. Took place in Pathfinder #23, in the middle of Legacy of Fire...

The way Golarion's multiverse works is inclusive; its universe is as big as our own, and works mostly the same way. Some regions of the universe are, essentailly, in regions of dead magic or close enough that they might as well be—that's where Earth, the Milky Way, and everything in between is...

I can confirm that Malcanthet missing from that list is indeed nothing more than an editorial error.

I'd also like to chime in on Gygax's Gord novels. They're GREAT fun to read, and they have a lot of cool (mostly non-canon, but still cool) demon stuff in there. Good times.

It probably is more than a coincidence, but I certainly didn't design Sifkesh to be a replacement for what's-her-name. The fact that they're both demon lords of suicide, though, means that they're going to be similar. The fact that I wrote a lot of the 3rd edition demon content AND that I wrote...

Nocticula's really the only one that does pose a few difficulties between various editions of the game, but that IS because there are certain "gaps" that we had to fill in Pathfinder that we couldn't use from traditional D&D due to the fact that a few key demon lord niches (particularly those...

Apart from my Demonomicon articles in Dragon (many of which have a lot of demony easter eggs and stealth references to various demon lords, old and new), you'll probably also want to check out the Savage Tide Adventure Path—particularly the last four adventures, which all take place on and...

We've illustrated her twice. Once on page 4 of Pathfinder Adventure Path #23, and then again on page 190 of the GameMastery Guide—that's the same illustration that appears on her Wiki page. She's basically a four-armed dragon centaur with burning wings, burning hair, and pointed ears. Wears...

It's actually part of several auctions we just launched, in cooperation with Wayne Reynolds, to raise as much money as we can to aid the relief efforts in Japan. All of the proceeds from all of these auctions (one of which is an original piece of art from Wayne) will be donated to the Red Cross...

Create Water doesn't create nearly enough water to flood deserts... but in hindsight, I really wish we'd upped it to be a 2nd level spell, because it IS a pretty disruptive spell to allow as a cantrip one can cast at will. And upping it to 2nd level gives folks two levels to play with "lost in...

Dragons Revisited was one of the earliest books we did, and we were still learning what we did and didn't want in Golarion at the time. We certainly didn't yet have our own game system at the time and were still flying under the 3.5 D&D flag. Since then, we've solidified the fact that dragons...

There actually aren't a lot of half-dragons in Golarion—those that exist are almost ALL half dragon, half something similar to a dragon. Like the sample half-dragon—it's half basilisk. Call it fatigue from my time spent on Dungeon magazine, where it felt like every other adventure proposal was...
